I'm having a problem with fonts in my MS Office. (vers 2016) The font list is massive (too large) when I open it and I don't have a 'bog standard' Arial font, anymore!
Any suggestions as to why I'm having this problem, sudddenly?
Any ideas for a fix?

Catalina includes an Arial Unicode font. Can you live with that? Office 365, Office 2016 for Mac, and Office 2019 for Mac all install their fonts within each included application bundle. You get what Microsoft packaged.

I do not have Microsoft Word, but my guess is that it is a merge of Microsoft's packaged fonts and those installed by the operating system. If you have any fonts in your /Users/yourname/Library/Fonts folder, those will also get added to the mix. I have the same mile long font list in Pages or LIbreOffice too.
Have you updated your Office 2016 to v16.16.16 that was released on Nov 12? The fonts on a font list should not be any larger than perhaps 14 pt. Does Word Preferences have any options for controlling that font listing?
Thank you, thats most helpful.
Any suggestions as to why my font list, in MS Word, looks so huge?
Apologies for my erroneous description.
Like you, my font list seems inexhaustive but the actual fonts, themselves, are also giant, in size?
